High speed steel is the super hard steel made from the powdered alloy tightened and hardened evenly.
Its sharpness could be No.1 in Japanese knife industry.
HAP40 is a powdered steel blend featuring high levels of Vanadium, Molybdenum, Cobalt and Tungsten, resulting in a semi-stainless blade with exception edge retention. Despite the incredible hardness of the blade, they are responsive to sharpening on whetstones.
